In this lesson, I demonstrated how to properly cut the fabric pieces for a skirt and its lining, considering the pattern placement and fabric design. I highlighted the importance of aligning the hemlines and seams for a polished look.

Lesson Steps:

  • Analyze the fabric pattern and determine the straight and cross grains
  • Place the pattern pieces strategically, aligning the hemlines and seams
  • Cut the fabric pieces, ensuring the hemlines are leveled
  • Make adjustments for thicker fabrics by adding extra length at the hem
  • Cut notches on the fabric pieces for marking purposes
  • Cut the lining pieces using the same pattern
  • Gather necessary notions like zipper, hooks, and eyes
